We have just returned from an amazing stay on Aitutaki and in particular Etu Moana. Jim and Joanne were away during our stay but we were in fantastic hands with the gorgeous staff and looked after well by Liz. if you have read just some of the glowing reviews you will know that this place leaves NOTHING to be desired.... more

My husband kept asking me to quit reading Etu Moana reviews as I'd get my expectations way too high...Well, they were high and I was not disappointed. Etu Moana is perfection! The property is stunning with beatiful gardens and clean, well-maintained, perfectly appointed villas. My best description is to compare your stay to a Bed and Breakfast....the employees get to... more

Not often I get to go to a place that is better than the hype. Etu Moana had a huge reputation to live up to and did so with flying colors. All the villas have all you need for a perfect holiday but it is worth going the extra mile and securing #3 or at least #1. the gardens are... more

We can confirm Etu Moana is the best hidden gem in the South Pacific! My husband and I enjoyed six magic days at this wonderful resort. Everyone has already gone to great lengths to tell the world how wonderful this resort, the staff, the beautiful lagoon are. We thought it would be useful if we passed on a couple of... more

I had the most wonderful time in Aitutaki staying at the Etu Moana bungalow #5. I was one of the very few single travelers there, but Jo-Anne, the girls and her husband Jim made my stay the most perfect experience I ever had. The bungalows are just wonderful, spacious and the bathroom is just too good to be true. I... more

Etu Moana is truly a lovely hotel. The staff are brilliant and the owners are truly lovely. The rooms are clean and spacious with great facilities. Be aware Aitutaki suffers badly from Mosquitoes day & night. Take plenty of spray and do not stay on any of the outer islands as you will get eaten alive!!!! more

We spent a week in Villa 1 at Etu Moana, and loved every second of it. The villas are perfectly designed and well-kept, with lots of thoughtful details and everything you need for a comfortable stay. We especially loved the shower. It's great - sometimes bathrooms leave much to be desired in overseas hotels. Jim and Jo, the owners, are... more

My husband surprised me on our honeymoon to the Cook Islands. Everything about Etu Moana is perfect from the setting, the accomodations, and the staff and owners. We were picked up by the airport by Lovey and greeted with warm sincerity. The staff all call you by name and make you feel right at home. Every one of our needs... more

After a hectic week of festivities on the main island of Rarotonga, we escaped for a few days of bliss to Aitutaki and the Etu Moana. The resort is as fabulous as everyone says but it is the small extras and attention to detail that make it truely superb. I would really like to thank the staff there for helping... more
